Shakespeare In Vegas, By Way Of The Playboy Mansion
"Neither Shakespeare nor British director Peter Brook probably imagined the staging of 'A Midsummer Night's Dream' like the setup at the Palms pool, which was redone on Saturday into a pirate's ship with skulls, plunder and sexy pirate babes dressed in red."
